Big help but needs minor fixes
Overall this app does exactly what it claims to do. It records each shot velocity and keeps a running history of all shoe strings. Adding target pictures with each string is a nice touch.
The weather updates currently do not work. It appears there was a change in this version to use weather underground, but temp and humidity show as n/a after a few second delay while the app tries to get current conditions.
I shot 15 strings of 5 shots on Friday. Had 2 errors in reading and had to restart the chrono twice. I think those were chrono/weather problems - the app kept working.
Suggestions for the developers:
- when I start a new group and the chrono is connected, start recording. Dont make me tap "start"
- fix weather lookup (Im guessing you know about that)
- add humidity and altitude lookup along with temp and pressure. We have to write these down, so if you are collecting 2 of the 4 necessary environmentals, you may as well get all 4 automatically (or use absolute/station pressure & temp & humidity)
- you have two fields for "notes" on each shot string. These are probably going to be for the firearm and the ammo. How about making a list where I can enter the firearms and loads and choose or not. I think this is what you are trying to do with "templates", but the UI of templates doesnt really match how most apps work so its not as intuitive to use as a customized list for each notes field.
- show the notes fields all the time ... Dont hide them and make me tap the arrow to show the info
Thanks
